Specific concerns

  • General:
  • Lead:
    • Seems a bit skimpy to me, can it be fleshed out a bit? A bit more from the background section might be helpful.
      • Expanded.
    • "Former charge"? Suggest "first charge"
      • Done.
  • Background:
    • Shouldn't there be a redlink for Social Credit Board? ANd a link to "People's League"?
      • Did one better and created bluelinks to both (andSocial Credit Board's now a GA nominee itself, so if you're looking for something else to review...)
  • Leaflet:
    • Link Attorney-General of Alberta?
      • Here, I don't think so. Canadian cabinet level positions are much less formally defined than their American counterparts, and every Premier appoints a different collection of ministers. Because of this, I don't think I could find sources dealing specifically with "Attorney-General of Alberta", since the position has no fixed meaning, responsibilities, etc. but is defined by what any given Premier wants it to be.
  • Aftermath:
    • "Other Social Crediters drove in a caravan to the Fort Saskatchewan Penitentiary, where the men were being held, every night to show their support." It's a bit awkward, suggest "Other Social Crediters drove in a caravan every night in a show of support to the Fort Saskatchewan Penitentiary, where the men were being held."
    • "He remains most remembered for his involvement in the Bankers' Toadies incident." Coming RIGHT after the "death mention" I was a bit confused at first as I thought it'd be saying where his corpse was buried. Maybe reword a bit?
  • Images:
  • Just a few little quibbles before I'm ready to promote, mainly linking and prose.
I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.Ealdgyth -Talk15:57, 7 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I believe I've addressed all of the above points; thank you for your review.Steve Smith (talk)08:57, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Driveby comments from MediaKyle

[edit]

This article is fascinating, thanks for working on it. I have a couple driveby comments to throw at you:

  • The wikilinks in the lead for "pamphlet" and "Incitement to violence" are right next to each other, causing an overlink issue.
  • The photo of David Duggan is oddly placed. Perhaps it could be moved down into the leaflets section?
  • Duggan seems to be first mentioned in the list, but then his full name and the wikilink isn't given until the following paragraph. I might add the link in the list instead.
  • Every night, Social Crediters drove to the Fort Saskatchewan Penitentiary, where the men were being held, to show their support. ... Every night for how long? Was it for the entire duration of their imprisonment?
  • The incident was part of a series of events that decreased Aberhart's political influence in Alberta ... a bit more detail about what those events were and how they relate to this wouldn't hurt.
  • Your ISBNs are formatted inconsistently. However you prefer to space them out, they should all be done the same way.
  • Some ISBNs use the 10-number and others the 12-number. I have been told in the past on Wikipedia that the number used is important and not to change it without good reason. I see that they all have dashes, so I think they are formatted correctly.Z1720 (talk)16:30, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

That's all I got. Great work! Cheers,MediaKyle (talk)13:01, 31 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

  • @MediaKyle: Thanks for your comments. Anything else to add?Z1720 (talk)16:30, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
    I don't think so, looks great! I just went over it again and fixed some nitpicky things that might have come up at your FAC. The only other thing I noticed is that University of Toronto Press is wikilinked in the references, but no other publishers are. I'd either remove that wikilink, or add links for the rest. I like to link them myself but some people think it's clutter... As far as the article content itself goes, I think it's quite well-polished. Cheers,MediaKyle (talk)16:56, 5 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
